Score: 82/100
Aircat 4338
Score: 85/100Rankings
The AIRCAT 4338 is a 0.6 HP 3/8-inch composite reversible pneumatic drill designed for precision drilling tasks in automotive, fabrication, and assembly work. It features a lightweight 2.5 lb composite body, a feather trigger for superior speed control, and a patented quiet tuned exhaust operating at 85 dBA. While excellent for precision work, the lower motor power limits its use in heavy-duty applications.
The Ingersoll Rand 7811G is a heavy-duty, reversible pneumatic pistol-grip air drill featuring a convenient keyless chuck and variable speeds. Its high air consumption at load is a notable trade-off for its power and convenience. It is best suited for DIY enthusiasts and auto mechanics needing a lightweight drill for smaller bits.
